BRIGHTON, Oct. 21, It Is believed by some that Brighton Is the only place known where there had been an attempt to steal a well. The well In question is located on the Pickel place near here and Is of the variety. In good condition, the well was bricked from its lowest depths to the level of the ground. The first Indication that anyone had any designs on it was when the bricks disappeared, all of them.

All those who speculate on the matter are convinced that anyone who wanted only the bricks would take them from some place easily to obtain them than a well, where they had to be loosened, hauled lo the surface, and carried away. So far no other conclusion has been than that the guilty persons Intended taking the well itself. That causes a great many speculations. Will the person take the water first and then dig up the well, or will he attempt to move the wel with the water In it? If caught transporting the well where will he hide it? Can it be folded up and tucked away some place out of sight, or must it stani upright in the air to its full 60 foo 'Another thing that is bothering some Is the question as to whethe the thief wanted the well for hi Own use or whether he will at tempt to sell it to some unsuspect ing person, perhaps canvassing from dodr to door until he make a sale Perhaps the person Is Intendin to open up a new industry. It ma be that they will finally cut it and sell it for post holes.

At atjj rate the well Is being watched closely to see what finally happens; Street Scenes In Wood River Play Enacted in Aisle i to Peep at 'Dumb Wife' Through Stage Window WOOD RIVER, Oct. scenes" in Anatole France's teatlre drama, "The Man Who Married a Dumb Wife," will be enacted In the aisles of the East Alton-Wood River community High Schcool audltort- im under an arrangement made by Miss Robert Poos, director.
